Christianity as we know it today was codified in 325 at the Council of Nicea. Before that date, it was a variety of Judaism that believed that Jesus was the promised Messiah of Israel. The apostles were Jewish men who studied with Jesus, and were firmly convinced that he was THE Annointed One which was promised by God in the Old Testament. The book of Acts in the New Testament records their reactions and journeys in spreading their beliefs to Jew and Gentile. The big split between Christianity and Judaism came about 135 CE during the Bar Kokhba Revolt. The Christians did not believe that Bar Kokhba was the Messiah, as they already knew that Jesus was. But the leadership of Judaism pushed for Bar Kokhba as Messiah, and the Christians did not participate in the revolt. This led to the division of Jew and Christian as it is today.
